Bush Lima Beans 
One pint of Lima Beans plant 100 feet of row 
BURPEE’S IMPROVED BUSH. The largest 
of all Bush Limas, bearing pods almost equal 
in size to those of the large Pole Limas. Pods 
5 to 6 inches long by 1% inches wide and the 
full size beans are of luscious flavor. 
McCrea’s Bush Lima 
or Baby Fordhook 
Strong, stocky bush with big root-system. 
Small pod like a Baby Lima but Bean large, 
thick. Potato type. Will stand cold and wet 
weather in the spring and extreme heat in sum¬ 
mer much better than other large-seeded 
Limas. Green-seeded, retaining a green tint 
when cooked. Dry seed small and shriveled, 
like a sugar pea, requiring less seed for plant¬ 
ing than other large-seeded Limas. By weight, 
larger percentage of Beans and less percentage 
of pods than other large-seeded Limas. Unusu¬ 
ally sweet flavor, different from any other 
Lima. Very prolific—pods in a crown setting 
with three to five Beans in a pod. An ideal 
home-garden Lima. On account of the flavor 
and green tint when cooked, we believe this 
new Lima will be a popular market gardener’s 
variety even though the pods are small. Dry 
Beans, when cooked, swell to same size as the 
green Beans, retaining the sweet flavor, thus 
being an exceptionally fine dry Lima for winter 
use. 
FORDHOOK. Nearly as large as Burpee’s 
Improved and about a week earlier. Ex¬ 
tremely prolific, with large, thick, meaty Beans 
of delicious quality. Shell easily and remain 
green a long time. 
HENDERSON’S BUSH. The earliest Lima 
grown and continues to produce until killed 
by frost. Will produce an abundant crop un¬ 
der a wider range of weather and soil condi¬ 
tions than any other Lima. Beans are not 
large, but the quality is excellent. Our Michi¬ 
gan grown seed is a week earlier than Western 
seed or seed grown farther south. 
Chinese Salad Bean 
or Chop Suey Bean 
A delicious bean that is used 
for bean-sprouts and served in 
chop suey and salads in the 
finest Oriental Cafes. Chinese 
Bean Sprouts are an all-the- 
year-around salad. You can 
have this fresh vegetable in the 
winter as well as in the sum¬ 
mer. They will grow in the 
kitchen and require ONLY 5 
DAYS FROM PLANTING TIME 
TO HARVEST. This bean also 
is unexcelled for soups. Pkt.,
